Overview

Constructs a service interface object. Each API operation is exposed as a function on service.

Service Description

AWS Batch enables you to run batch computing workloads on the AWS Cloud. Batch computing is a common way for developers, scientists, and engineers to access large amounts of compute resources, and AWS Batch removes the undifferentiated heavy lifting of configuring and managing the required infrastructure. AWS Batch will be familiar to users of traditional batch computing software. This service can efficiently provision resources in response to jobs submitted in order to eliminate capacity constraints, reduce compute costs, and deliver results quickly.

As a fully managed service, AWS Batch enables developers, scientists, and engineers to run batch computing workloads of any scale. AWS Batch automatically provisions compute resources and optimizes the workload distribution based on the quantity and scale of the workloads. With AWS Batch, there is no need to install or manage batch computing software, which allows you to focus on analyzing results and solving problems. AWS Batch reduces operational complexities, saves time, and reduces costs, which makes it easy for developers, scientists, and engineers to run their batch jobs in the AWS Cloud.

Sending a Request Using Batch

var batch = new AWS.Batch();
batch.cancelJob(params, function (err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Locking the API Version

In order to ensure that the Batch object uses this specific API, you can construct the object by passing the apiVersion option to the constructor:

var batch = new AWS.Batch({apiVersion: '2016-08-10'});

You can also set the API version globally in AWS.config.apiVersions using the batch service identifier:

AWS.config.apiVersions = {
  batch: '2016-08-10',
  // other service API versions
};

var batch = new AWS.Batch();

  • apiVersions (map<String, String|Date>)

    a map of service identifiers (the lowercase service class name) with the API version to use when instantiating a service. Specify 'latest' for each individual that can use the latest available version.

  • logger (#write, #log)

    an object that responds to .write() (like a stream) or .log() (like the console object) in order to log information about requests

  • systemClockOffset (Number)

    an offset value in milliseconds to apply to all signing times. Use this to compensate for clock skew when your system may be out of sync with the service time. Note that this configuration option can only be applied to the global AWS.config object and cannot be overridden in service-specific configuration. Defaults to 0 milliseconds.

Method Details

cancelJob(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Cancels a job in an AWS Batch job queue. Jobs that are in the SUBMITTED, PENDING, or RUNNABLE state are cancelled. Jobs that have progressed to STARTING or RUNNING are not cancelled (but the API operation still succeeds, even if no job is cancelled); these jobs must be terminated with the TerminateJob operation.

Service Reference:

Examples:

To cancel a job


/* This example cancels a job with the specified job ID. */

 var params = {
  jobId: "1d828f65-7a4d-42e8-996d-3b900ed59dc4", 
  reason: "Cancelling job."
 };
 batch.cancelJob(params, function(err, data) {
   if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
   else     console.log(data);           // successful response
   /*
   data = {
   }
   */
 });

Calling the cancelJob operation

var params = {
  jobId: 'STRING_VALUE', /* required */
  reason: 'STRING_VALUE' /* required */
};
batch.cancelJob(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • jobId — (String)

      The AWS Batch job ID of the job to cancel.

    • reason — (String)

      A message to attach to the job that explains the reason for canceling it. This message is returned by future DescribeJobs operations on the job. This message is also recorded in the AWS Batch activity logs.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

createComputeEnvironment(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Creates an AWS Batch compute environment. You can create MANAGED or UNMANAGED compute environments.

In a managed compute environment, AWS Batch manages the capacity and instance types of the compute resources within the environment. This is based on the compute resource specification that you define or the launch template that you specify when you create the compute environment. You can choose to use Amazon EC2 On-Demand Instances or Spot Instances in your managed compute environment. You can optionally set a maximum price so that Spot Instances only launch when the Spot Instance price is below a specified percentage of the On-Demand price.

Note: Multi-node parallel jobs are not supported on Spot Instances.

In an unmanaged compute environment, you can manage your own compute resources. This provides more compute resource configuration options, such as using a custom AMI, but you must ensure that your AMI meets the Amazon ECS container instance AMI specification. For more information, see Container Instance AMIs in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide. After you have created your unmanaged compute environment, you can use the DescribeComputeEnvironments operation to find the Amazon ECS cluster that is associated with it. Then, manually launch your container instances into that Amazon ECS cluster. For more information, see Launching an Amazon ECS Container Instance in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.

Note: AWS Batch does not upgrade the AMIs in a compute environment after it is created (for example, when a newer version of the Amazon ECS-optimized AMI is available). You are responsible for the management of the guest operating system (including updates and security patches) and any additional application software or utilities that you install on the compute resources. To use a new AMI for your AWS Batch jobs:
  1. Create a new compute environment with the new AMI.
  2. Add the compute environment to an existing job queue.
  3. Remove the old compute environment from your job queue.
  4. Delete the old compute environment.

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • computeEnvironmentName — (String)

      The name for your compute environment. Up to 128 letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, hyphens, and underscores are allowed.

    • type — (String)

      The type of the compute environment. For more information, see Compute Environments in the AWS Batch User Guide.

      Possible values include:
      • "MANAGED"
      • "UNMANAGED"
    • state — (String)

      The state of the compute environment. If the state is ENABLED, then the compute environment accepts jobs from a queue and can scale out automatically based on queues.

      Possible values include:
      • "ENABLED"
      • "DISABLED"
    • computeResources — (map)

      Details of the compute resources managed by the compute environment. This parameter is required for managed compute environments. For more information, see Compute Environments in the AWS Batch User Guide.

      • typerequired — (String)

        The type of compute environment: EC2 or SPOT.

        Possible values include:
        • "EC2"
        • "SPOT"
      • minvCpusrequired — (Integer)

        The minimum number of EC2 vCPUs that an environment should maintain (even if the compute environment is DISABLED).

      • maxvCpusrequired — (Integer)

        The maximum number of EC2 vCPUs that an environment can reach.

      • desiredvCpus — (Integer)

        The desired number of EC2 vCPUS in the compute environment.

      • instanceTypesrequired — (Array<String>)

        The instances types that may be launched. You can specify instance families to launch any instance type within those families (for example, c4 or p3), or you can specify specific sizes within a family (such as c4.8xlarge). You can also choose optimal to pick instance types (from the C, M, and R instance families) on the fly that match the demand of your job queues.

      • imageId — (String)

        The Amazon Machine Image (AMI) ID used for instances launched in the compute environment.

      • subnetsrequired — (Array<String>)

        The VPC subnets into which the compute resources are launched.

      • securityGroupIds — (Array<String>)

        The EC2 security group that is associated with instances launched in the compute environment.

      • ec2KeyPair — (String)

        The EC2 key pair that is used for instances launched in the compute environment.

      • instanceRolerequired — (String)

        The Amazon ECS instance profile applied to Amazon EC2 instances in a compute environment. You can specify the short name or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an instance profile. For example, ecsInstanceRole or arn:aws:iam::<aws_account_id>:instance-profile/ecsInstanceRole . For more information, see Amazon ECS Instance Role in the AWS Batch User Guide.

      • tags — (map<String>)

        Key-value pair tags to be applied to resources that are launched in the compute environment. For AWS Batch, these take the form of "String1": "String2", where String1 is the tag key and String2 is the tag value—for example, { "Name": "AWS Batch Instance - C4OnDemand" }.

      • placementGroup — (String)

        The Amazon EC2 placement group to associate with your compute resources. If you intend to submit multi-node parallel jobs to your compute environment, you should consider creating a cluster placement group and associate it with your compute resources. This keeps your multi-node parallel job on a logical grouping of instances within a single Availability Zone with high network flow potential. For more information, see Placement Groups in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances.

      • bidPercentage — (Integer)

        The maximum percentage that a Spot Instance price can be when compared with the On-Demand price for that instance type before instances are launched. For example, if your maximum percentage is 20%, then the Spot price must be below 20% of the current On-Demand price for that EC2 instance. You always pay the lowest (market) price and never more than your maximum percentage. If you leave this field empty, the default value is 100% of the On-Demand price.

      • spotIamFleetRole — (String)

        The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon EC2 Spot Fleet IAM role applied to a SPOT compute environment. For more information, see Amazon EC2 Spot Fleet Role in the AWS Batch User Guide.

      • launchTemplate — (map)

        The launch template to use for your compute resources. Any other compute resource parameters that you specify in a CreateComputeEnvironment API operation override the same parameters in the launch template. You must specify either the launch template ID or launch template name in the request, but not both. For more information, see Launch Template Support in the AWS Batch User Guide.

        • launchTemplateId — (String)

          The ID of the launch template.

        • launchTemplateName — (String)

          The name of the launch template.

        • version — (String)

          The version number of the launch template.

          Default: The default version of the launch template.

    • serviceRole — (String)

      The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role that allows AWS Batch to make calls to other AWS services on your behalf.

      If your specified role has a path other than /, then you must either specify the full role ARN (this is recommended) or prefix the role name with the path.

      Note: Depending on how you created your AWS Batch service role, its ARN may contain the service-role path prefix. When you only specify the name of the service role, AWS Batch assumes that your ARN does not use the service-role path prefix. Because of this, we recommend that you specify the full ARN of your service role when you create compute environments.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • computeEnvironmentName — (String)

        The name of the compute environment.

      • computeEnvironmentArn — (String)

        The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the compute environment.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

createJobQueue(params = {}, callback) ⇒ AWS.Request

Creates an AWS Batch job queue. When you create a job queue, you associate one or more compute environments to the queue and assign an order of preference for the compute environments.

You also set a priority to the job queue that determines the order in which the AWS Batch scheduler places jobs onto its associated compute environments. For example, if a compute environment is associated with more than one job queue, the job queue with a higher priority is given preference for scheduling jobs to that compute environment.

    • jobQueueName — (String)

      The name of the job queue.

    • state — (String)

      The state of the job queue. If the job queue state is ENABLED, it is able to accept jobs.

      Possible values include:
      • "ENABLED"
      • "DISABLED"
    • priority — (Integer)

      The priority of the job queue. Job queues with a higher priority (or a higher integer value for the priority parameter) are evaluated first when associated with the same compute environment. Priority is determined in descending order, for example, a job queue with a priority value of 10 is given scheduling preference over a job queue with a priority value of 1.

    • computeEnvironmentOrder — (Array<map>)

      The set of compute environments mapped to a job queue and their order relative to each other. The job scheduler uses this parameter to determine which compute environment should execute a given job. Compute environments must be in the VALID state before you can associate them with a job queue. You can associate up to three compute environments with a job queue.

      • orderrequired — (Integer)

        The order of the compute environment.

      • computeEnvironmentrequired — (String)

        The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the compute environment.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

});

Parameters:

  • params (Object) (defaults to: {})
    • computeEnvironments — (Array<String>)

      A list of up to 100 compute environment names or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) entries.

    • maxResults — (Integer)

      The maximum number of cluster results returned by DescribeComputeEnvironments in paginated output. When this parameter is used, DescribeComputeEnvironments only returns maxResults results in a single page along with a nextToken response element. The remaining results of the initial request can be seen by sending another DescribeComputeEnvironments request with the returned nextToken value. This value can be between 1 and 100. If this parameter is not used, then DescribeComputeEnvironments returns up to 100 results and a nextToken value if applicable.

    • nextToken — (String)

      The nextToken value returned from a previous paginated DescribeComputeEnvironments request where maxResults was used and the results exceeded the value of that parameter. Pagination continues from the end of the previous results that returned the nextToken value. This value is null when there are no more results to return.

      Note: This token should be treated as an opaque identifier that is only used to retrieve the next items in a list and not for other programmatic purposes.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      the de-serialized data returned from the request. Set to null if a request error occurs. The data object has the following properties:

      • computeEnvironments — (Array<map>)

        The list of compute environments.

        • computeEnvironmentNamerequired — (String)

          The name of the compute environment.

          The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the compute environment.

        • ecsClusterArnrequired — (String)

          The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the underlying Amazon ECS cluster used by the compute environment.

        • type — (String)

          The type of the compute environment.

          Possible values include:
          • "MANAGED"

        • state — (String)

          The state of the compute environment. The valid values are ENABLED or DISABLED.

          If the state is ENABLED, then the AWS Batch scheduler can attempt to place jobs from an associated job queue on the compute resources within the environment. If the compute environment is managed, then it can scale its instances out or in automatically, based on the job queue demand.

          If the state is DISABLED, then the AWS Batch scheduler does not attempt to place jobs within the environment. Jobs in a STARTING or RUNNING state continue to progress normally. Managed compute environments in the DISABLED state do not scale out. However, they scale in to minvCpus value after instances become idle.

          Possible values include:
          • "ENABLED"
          • "DISABLED"
        • status — (String)

          The current status of the compute environment (for example, CREATING or VALID).

          The compute resources defined for the compute environment.

          • typerequired — (String)

            The type of compute environment: EC2 or SPOT.

            Possible values include:
            • "EC2"
            • "SPOT"
          • minvCpusrequired — (Integer)

You can also choose optimal to pick instance types (from the C, M, and R instance families) on the fly that match the demand of your job queues.

          • imageId — (String)

            The Amazon Machine Image (AMI) ID used for instances launched in the compute environment.

          • subnetsrequired — (Array<String>)

          • ec2KeyPair — (String)

            The EC2 key pair that is used for instances launched in the compute environment.

          • instanceRolerequired — (String)

            The Amazon ECS instance profile applied to Amazon EC2 instances in a compute environment. You can specify the short name or full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an instance profile. For example, ecsInstanceRole or arn:aws:iam::<aws_account_id>:instance-profile/ecsInstanceRole . For more information, see Amazon ECS Instance Role in the AWS Batch User Guide.

          • tags — (map<String>)

            Key-value pair tags to be applied to resources that are launched in the compute environment. For AWS Batch, these take the form of "String1": "String2", where String1 is the tag key and String2 is the tag value—for example, { "Name": "AWS Batch Instance - C4OnDemand" }.

          • placementGroup — (String)

            The Amazon EC2 placement group to associate with your compute resources. If you intend to submit multi-node parallel jobs to your compute environment, you should consider creating a cluster placement group and associate it with your compute resources. This keeps your multi-node parallel job on a logical grouping of instances within a single Availability Zone with high network flow potential. For more information, see Placement Groups in the Amazon EC2 User Guide for Linux Instances.

          • bidPercentage — (Integer)

            The maximum percentage that a Spot Instance price can be when compared with the On-Demand price for that instance type before instances are launched. For example, if your maximum percentage is 20%, then the Spot price must be below 20% of the current On-Demand price for that EC2 instance. You always pay the lowest (market) price and never more than your maximum percentage. If you leave this field empty, the default value is 100% of the On-Demand price.

          • spotIamFleetRole — (String)

            The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon EC2 Spot Fleet IAM role applied to a SPOT compute environment. For more information, see Amazon EC2 Spot Fleet Role in the AWS Batch User Guide.

          • launchTemplate — (map)

            The launch template to use for your compute resources. Any other compute resource parameters that you specify in a CreateComputeEnvironment API operation override the same parameters in the launch template. You must specify either the launch template ID or launch template name in the request, but not both. For more information, see Launch Template Support in the AWS Batch User Guide.

            • version — (String)

              The version number of the launch template.

              Default: The default version of the launch template.

        • serviceRole — (String)

          The service role associated with the compute environment that allows AWS Batch to make calls to AWS API operations on your behalf.

      • nextToken — (String)

        The nextToken value to include in a future DescribeComputeEnvironments request. When the results of a DescribeJobDefinitions request exceed maxResults, this value can be used to retrieve the next page of results. This value is null when there are no more results to return.

Returns:

  • (AWS.Request)

    a handle to the operation request for subsequent event callback registration.

Calling the describeJobQueues operation

var params = {
  jobQueues: [
    'STRING_VALUE',
    /* more items */
  ],
  maxResults: 'NUMBER_VALUE',
  nextToken: 'STRING_VALUE'
};
batch.describeJobQueues(params, function(err, data) {
  if (err) console.log(err, err.stack); // an error occurred
  else     console.log(data);           // successful response
});

Parameters:

    • jobQueues — (Array<String>)

      A list of up to 100 queue names or full queue Amazon Resource Name (ARN) entries.

    • maxResults — (Integer)

      The maximum number of results returned by DescribeJobQueues in paginated output. When this parameter is used, DescribeJobQueues only returns maxResults results in a single page along with a nextToken response element. The remaining results of the initial request can be seen by sending another DescribeJobQueues request with the returned nextToken value. This value can be between 1 and 100. If this parameter is not used, then DescribeJobQueues returns up to 100 results and a nextToken value if applicable.

    • nextToken — (String)

      The nextToken value returned from a previous paginated DescribeJobQueues request where maxResults was used and the results exceeded the value of that parameter. Pagination continues from the end of the previous results that returned the nextToken value. This value is null when there are no more results to return.

      Note: This token should be treated as an opaque identifier that is only used to retrieve the next items in a list and not for other programmatic purposes.

    • nextToken — (String)

      The nextToken value returned from a previous paginated ListJobs request where maxResults was used and the results exceeded the value of that parameter. Pagination continues from the end of the previous results that returned the nextToken value. This value is null when there are no more results to return.

      Note: This token should be treated as an opaque identifier that is only used to retrieve the next items in a list and not for other programmatic purposes.

Callback (callback):

  • function(err, data) { ... }

    Called when a response from the service is returned. If a callback is not supplied, you must call AWS.Request.send() on the returned request object to initiate the request.

    Context (this):

    • (AWS.Response)

      the response object containing error, data properties, and the original request object.

    Parameters:

    • err (Error)

      the error object returned from the request. Set to null if the request is successful.

    • data (Object)

      Possible values include:
      • "container"
      • "multinode"
    • parameters — (map<String>)

      Default parameter substitution placeholders to set in the job definition. Parameters are specified as a key-value pair mapping. Parameters in a SubmitJob request override any corresponding parameter defaults from the job definition.

    • containerProperties — (map)

      An object with various properties specific to single-node container-based jobs. If the job definition's type parameter is container, then you must specify either containerProperties or nodeProperties.

      • image — (String)

        The image used to start a container. This string is passed directly to the Docker daemon. Images in the Docker Hub registry are available by default. Other repositories are specified with repository-url/image:tag . Up to 255 letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, hyphens, underscores, colons, periods, forward slashes, and number signs are allowed. This parameter maps to Image in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the IMAGE parameter of docker run.

        • Images in Amazon ECR repositories use the full registry and repository URI (for example, 012345678910.dkr.ecr.<region-name>.amazonaws.com/<repository-name>).

        • Images in official repositories on Docker Hub use a single name (for example, ubuntu or mongo).

        • Images in other repositories on Docker Hub are qualified with an organization name (for example, amazon/amazon-ecs-agent).

        • Images in other online repositories are qualified further by a domain name (for example, quay.io/assemblyline/ubuntu).

      • vcpus — (Integer)

        The number of vCPUs reserved for the container. This parameter maps to CpuShares in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the --cpu-shares option to docker run. Each vCPU is equivalent to 1,024 CPU shares. You must specify at least one vCPU.

      • memory — (Integer)

        The hard limit (in MiB) of memory to present to the container. If your container attempts to exceed the memory specified here, the container is killed. This parameter maps to Memory in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the --memory option to docker run. You must specify at least 4 MiB of memory for a job.

        Note: If you are trying to maximize your resource utilization by providing your jobs as much memory as possible for a particular instance type, see Memory Management in the AWS Batch User Guide.
      • command — (Array<String>)

          • sourcePath — (String)

            The path on the host container instance that is presented to the container. If this parameter is empty, then the Docker daemon has assigned a host path for you. If this parameter contains a file location, then the data volume persists at the specified location on the host container instance until you delete it manually. If the source path location does not exist on the host container instance, the Docker daemon creates it. If the location does exist, the contents of the source path folder are exported.

        • name — (String)

          The name of the volume. Up to 255 letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers, hyphens, and underscores are allowed. This name is referenced in the sourceVolume parameter of container definition mountPoints.

      • environment — (Array<map>)

        The environment variables to pass to a container. This parameter maps to Env in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the --env option to docker run.

        We do not recommend using plaintext environment variables for sensitive information, such as credential data.

        Note: Environment variables must not start with AWS_BATCH; this naming convention is reserved for variables that are set by the AWS Batch service.
        • name — (String)

          The name of the key-value pair. For environment variables, this is the name of the environment variable.

        • sourceVolume — (String)

          The name of the volume to mount.

      • readonlyRootFilesystem — (Boolean)

        When this parameter is true, the container is given read-only access to its root file system. This parameter maps to ReadonlyRootfs in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the --read-only option to docker run.

      • privileged — (Boolean)

        When this parameter is true, the container is given elevated privileges on the host container instance (similar to the root user). This parameter maps to Privileged in the Create a container section of the Docker Remote API and the --privileged option to docker run.

If the job definition's type parameter is container, then you must specify either containerProperties or nodeProperties.

      • numNodesrequired — (Integer)

        The number of nodes associated with a multi-node parallel job.

      • mainNoderequired — (Integer)

        • targetNodesrequired — (String)

          The range of nodes, using node index values. A range of 0:3 indicates nodes with index values of 0 through 3. If the starting range value is omitted (:n), then 0 is used to start the range. If the ending range value is omitted (n:), then the highest possible node index is used to end the range. Your accumulative node ranges must account for all nodes (0:n). You may nest node ranges, for example 0:10 and 4:5, in which case the 4:5 range properties override the 0:10 properties.

        • container — (map)

          The container details for the node range.

    • timeout — (map)

      The timeout configuration for jobs that are submitted with this job definition, after which AWS Batch terminates your jobs if they have not finished. If a job is terminated due to a timeout, it is not retried. The minimum value for the timeout is 60 seconds. Any timeout configuration that is specified during a SubmitJob operation overrides the timeout configuration defined here. For more information, see Job Timeouts in the Amazon Elastic Container Service Developer Guide.

      • attemptDurationSeconds — (Integer)

        The time duration in seconds (measured from the job attempt's startedAt timestamp) after which AWS Batch terminates your jobs if they have not finished.

      The full Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM role that allows AWS Batch to make calls to other AWS services on your behalf.

      If your specified role has a path other than /, then you must either specify the full role ARN (this is recommended) or prefix the role name with the path.

      Note: Depending on how you created your AWS Batch service role, its ARN may contain the service-role path prefix. When you only specify the name of the service role, AWS Batch assumes that your ARN does not use the service-role path prefix. Because of this, we recommend that you specify the full ARN of your service role when you create compute environments.
